The Madison Area YMCA’s 18th Annual Charity Bocce Invitational “Tournament to Wellness” kicked off this week. Presented by Provident Bank, the tournament continues through the middle of October Monday through Thursday at 6:30 p.m.

The Toto family and the Forum Club host the “Tournament to Wellness.” This long-standing partnership event between the Forum Club and the Madison Area raises funds for the Madison Area YMCA’s Paths to Wellness programming that include: LIVESTRONG at the YMCA, a 12-week no fee wellness program for cancer survivors and their families; Diabetes Prevention Program; Community Mental Health Initiative; Healthy Weight Loss; Enhance Fitness; One Step; Delay the Disease and Project Community Pride of the Madison Area YMCA. Last year, the event raised more than $32,000 for the Y’s Paths to Wellness programs.

The Madison Area YMCA is a 501c3 cause-driven charitable organization dedicated to strengthening community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.
